Brought to you by Wiki: In 1945, Grand Island was part of a plan to make a new World Peace Capital on the international border between Southern Ontario and Western New York. The plan proposed placing the United Nations headquarters on adjacent Navy Island (Ontario, Canada), which was considered an ideal location because it lay on the boundary between two peaceful countries. The proposal was ultimately turned down in favor of the current U.N. headquarters in New York City.
